Hello,
I recently installed Fedora 42 on an Asus F570Z laptop with the following specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx
Integrated GPU: AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
Dedicated GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Mobile
RAM: 8 GB
Storage: 256 GB SSD
However, the boot time is very slow. I have generated some log files to share here and would really appreciate some help identifying what is going on.
How can I attach the log files here?
Post the output from a systemd-analyze and a systemd-analyze blame.
Why did you install 42?
f42 is already EOL and you should upgrade following these instructions.
Edit:
If you upgrade to f43 there should be no problem, but if you upgrade to f44 and have or wish to have the nvidia drivers installed for that gpu it will be necessary to also replace the default f44 nvidia drivers (version 595) with the legacy driver 580xx.
Enable the proper rpmfusion repo
then, if the nvidia driver is already installed run
sudo dnf swap akmod-nvidia akmod-nvidia-580xx --allowerasing
If not already installed install it with
sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia-580xx xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-580xx-cuda
The newer 595 version driver does not support any nvidia GPU of the 10xx series or older, but the 580xx driver retains support for many of those GPUs.
